Two fellow Boating entities sit at the top of the similarity graph — West Marine at 0.99 and Freedom Boat Club at 0.97 — and then the neighbor set shifts entirely into lifestyle and leisure brands with no further boating entries in the top 10.
That second cluster is the more revealing half of the picture. Coastal Living (0.92, Magazines) leads it, followed by Kilwins (0.88, Bakeries Desserts and Confectioneries) and The Spice & Tea Exchange (0.86, Specialty grocery). Hospitality then fills out the lower tier: Hilton Grand Vacations (0.86, Mid-range Hotels), Ascend Resort Collection (0.86, Boutique and Specialized Lodging), and Worldmark by Wyndham (0.85, Mid-range Hotels). The set closes with two Apparel/General entries — vineyard vines (0.82) and Tommy Bahama (0.79) — rounding out a neighbor profile built around coastal-lifestyle retail, specialty food, and vacation lodging rather than any adjacent outdoor sport or marine industry.
The two-peak structure here is unusually clean: a tight boating-specific cluster at the top, then a drop to a broad leisure-lifestyle band — suggesting this audience is defined as much by a waterfront-adjacent consumer identity as by the activity itself.
